If it's good data and the subscription is reasonable, I might be a
customer some day. Even w/o mythTV capability, the searchable data base
of upcoming TV listings is far superior to anything available on paper
or a listings channel.

A time comes when silence is betrayal. Even when pressed by the demands of 
inner truth, men do not easily assume the task of opposing their government's 
policy, especially in time of war. Nor does the human spirit move without 
great difficulty against all the apathy of conformist thought, within one's 
own bosom and in the surrounding world.
